This invention refers to 5-substituted derivatives of 5H-dibenz(b,f)-azepine and their salts, which are intermediate products for psychoactive drugs.
There are a number of psychoactive substances derivatives of 5H-dibenz(b,f)-azepine, also known as Iminostilbene, as well as 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenz(b,f)-azepine, known as Iminodibenzyl, with a general formula I; ##STR1## where R1 and R2 designate a hydrogen or carbon-carbon bond, while R3 (substuent in position 5, respectively), is a basic substituted hydrocarbon residue. For example: the drug Imipramin (R1 and R2 = H, R3 = --CH2 CH2 CH2 N(CH3)2), described in the Swiss Patent 296 925, and the known drug Opipramol hydrochloride (R1 and R2, carbon-carbon bond, ##STR2## obtained under the German Federal Republic Pat. No. 1 132 556, are also currently used. Compounds with a general formula I also have psychactive properties where R1 and R2 have the abovementioned values, while R3 is a substituted (non-substituted) carbamoyl residue. This group includes substances with pronounced anticonvulsive action, known in therapy as Carbamazepin (U.S. Pat. No. 2,948,718) and Ciheptamide (U.S. Pat. No. 2,762,796).
This invention develops a method of producing 5-substituted derivatives of 5H-dibenz(b,f)-azepine where the substituent should be a residue of thiocarbamic acid, i.e. ##STR3## and also suitable N- and S-substituted derivatives of the abovesaid thiocarbamoyl residue.
According to the invention the compounds may be presented by the general formula II ##STR4## where R1 and R2 designate hydrogen or carbon-carbon bond, X indicates =S or --SCH3, and Y means --NH2 ; --NHCOC6 H5 ; ═N.sym. H2 I.crclbar. or ═NH. The symbol of a double straight and dotted line ( ) pictures a simple or double bond between C -- X and C -- Y, respectively. It is clear that when the bond between the exocyclic carbon atom and the X substituent is double, the bond between this same carbon atom and the Y substituent is simple, and vice versa. According to the invention, compounds with a general formula II and their salts are produced by the respective treatment of mixed anhydride of benzoic and isothiocyanic acid (benzoylisothiocyanate) giving very good results.
According to the method of this invention, Iminostilbene and Iminodibenzyl react readily with benzoylisothiocyanate under soft conditions, producing very high yields of 5-substituted derivatives of 5H-dibenz(b,f)-azepine with a general formula II, where X designate ═S and Y --NHCOC6 H5. The easy and high yield of the said compounds is unexpected, considering the difficulties of N-alkylation of 5H-dibenz(b,f)-azepine derivatives (Medicinskaja promishlenost USSR, 1961, No. 12, 10 and the German Pat. No. 1 132 556).
The benzoylthiocarbamoyl compounds obtained, have very high purity and may be used without purification to produce thiocarbamoyl derivatives by hydrolysis in an alkaline medium.
It has been established that this complex process depends on the centration of the alkaline base used. Excess of the fixed concentration disturbs the process of hydrolysis completely: the desired thiocarbamoyl compounds are not obtained, and initial heterocycles are produced instead. In lower than necessary concentrations the process is interrupted altogether, so that the limits within which a preferable concentration of the alkaline base should vary, are very narrow for optimal hydrolysis. On observing the necessary conditions, the process of hydrolysis runs very smoothly and the desired thiocarbamoyl compounds with a general formula II, where X means ═S and Y --NH2, are produced in a high (almost quantitative) yield.
The thiocarbamoyl derivatives can be subjected to S-methylation with methyl iodide, resulting in a quantitative yield of isothiurhonium salts with a general formula II, where X indicates --SCH3 and Y -- ═N.sym. H2 I.crclbar.. For an optimal conduction of the process of S-methylation, it is important to select a suitable solvent. It is preferable to use such organic solvents as ketones (acetone) and aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, xylene), esters of the lower fatty acids or mixtures of the said solvents.
Isothiurhonium salts interact with strong inorganic bases like sodium and potassium hydroxide or weaker inorganic or organic bases, such as sodium bicarbonate, ammonia, pyridine, etc., producing compounds with a general formula II, where X indicates --SCH3 and Y -- ═NH.
According to this invention the abovesaid compounds are valuable intermediate products for drug synthesis. N-benzoylthiocarbamoyl derivatives are used to produce thiocarbamoyl compounds which, on their part, are a base for the production of isothiurhonium salts and bases. Compounds with useful anticonvulsive action (Carbamazepin Ciheptamide) are produced from the latter by alkaline hydrolysis.
